    Duration of ownership: 1 Year

    Strengths: 2Mp Camera , Blue tooth , Sliding key board ,Windows Mobile 6.0, External storage card , Wireless internet capable, Touch screen, WiFi.

    Weaknesses: Slider seams loose after awhile, No GPS, Slow processor, low on internal memory, answers calls when removing from case even with keys locked, sealing.

    Duration of ownership: 2 Months

    Strengths: Very complete as Smartphone and PDA

    Weaknesses: Slow processor (not horrible). Regarding it's capabilities we can say that Wing is still poor in productive software.

    Overall Evaluation: The Test Review written by Melissa J. Perenson is pretty good and complete. It gives you a clear idea of the smartphone you will buy. But there is an inaccuracy in the Test Report that can mislead costumers. The T-mobile Wing DOES NOT include GPS capabilities. It has software to manage a GPS device that you should attach via bluetooth to the Wing. This software does not represent any GPS capability for a marvelous Smartphone like T-mobile Wing.

    Strengths: 1) touchscreen2) sliding keyboard3) wifi

    Weaknesses: slow processor

    Overall Evaluation: This is a good smartphone with touchscreen and wifi.It comes with windows mobile 6.0. It should be easy to use if you have used windows mobile 5.0 before. I wish it is a little bit skinnier. It is not responsive since it has a slower processor.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Price, WM6, QUERTY keyboard & touch screen, WIFI, Bluetooth, variety of hacks and applications available.

    Weaknesses: A bit Bulky, a bit slow, no gps receiver, stock leather case not good at all.

    Overall Evaluation: I use this phone for 2 month and like it so far. Applied patch to improve memory use but still hesitate to over clock it.It is slow especially when switch between applications. Camera is worthless, not that I need it at all.Reception is good, Bluetooth and WiFi are working good. Case that came in the box is not well designed and makes it difficult to answer the call. Would be nice to have GPS receiver not that I really need it too :) This PDA phone served perfectly for replacing my older phone & Palm pair, and may be will replace MP3 player when I get bigger memory card.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: touch screen, slide out keyboard

    Weaknesses: size, initial slowness

    Overall Evaluation: This phone is great when it comes to features. Windows Mobile has an amazing amount of third party software, and is very hackable. It does require some initial tweaking to get the software running smoothly, however. The touch screen and slide out keyboard are awesome, the stylus is also useful at times. The phone is still a little big for my tastes, but its definitely manageable. Overall this is a great phone.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: QWERTY keyboard + touchscreen, battery life

    Weaknesses: Data speeds are not up to par with other carriers

    Overall Evaluation: Query for "T-Mobile Wing tweaks" on the search engine of your choice and you will find a couple of free applications for the Wing that will let you overclock the CPU and change the page pool size from 12 megs to 6. I now have over 18 megs of free RAM upon startup with markedly improved performance with the CPU running at 247 Mhz. For the price, the Wing is tough to beat.
